Per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are anthropogenic chemicals extensively used in consumer products. Perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS), a short-chain PFAS, has been introduced as an alternative to long-chain PFAS, but limited studies have investigated its reproductive toxicity in fish. In this study, adult zebrafish were exposed to PFBS at concentrations of 0.

Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is a low-molecular-weight phthalate commonly found in personal care products, such as perfumes, aftershaves, and nail care items, as well as in children's toys, pharmaceuticals, and food products. It is used to improve flexibility, make polymer products soft and malleable, and as solvents and stabilizers in personal care products. Pregnancy represents a critical period during which both the mother and the developing embryo can be significantly impacted by exposure to endocrine disruptors.

Background: Transgender men face reproductive challenges due to the potential impact on fertility of gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) and surgical interventions. Testosterone therapy during "female to male" transition leads to anovulation and amenorrhea. Although these effects are typically reversible upon stopping treatment, the long-term effects of androgens on future fertility and health of potential children remain poorly known.

This study aimed to examine the impact of dietary carbohydrate to lipid (CHO/L) ratio on the growth, reproductive, and offspring performance of broodstock yellow catfish, and to elucidate the metabolic differences between mothers and offspring using lipidomics. Five isonitrogenous and isoenergetic diets with varying CHO/L ratios (0.65, 1.

Despite the long history of experimental trials to combat schistosomiasis, it remains a significant burden due to drug resistance and the effectiveness of the standard treatment only against the mature stage, while skipping other early developmental stages thus leading to severe permanent pathological sequelae. Therefore, repurposing a commonly used well-known safe drug would be a wise alternative. We investigated the potential anti-schistosomal drug activity of Daflon® (DAF) against different schistosomal developmental stages.
